Mayans

Mayans spent a great deal of time practicing their religion, even performing ritual blood lettings and sacrifices. Prisoners, slaves, orphans, illegitimate children, and other children were popular sacrifice victims.

Mayan people made use of geography of their region by digging canals that carried water from the rivers to where they wanted the water to go

i think they would play games such as catch and the women would probably sew clothes or something

The Maya believed in an afterlife and the importance of honoring their deceased family members. They would bury their loved ones in tombs or in family plots beneath their homes. They also performed rituals and ceremonies to remember and communicate with their ancestors and believed that the souls of the deceased would continue to guide and protect the living.

There are four sides to a Mayan temple. Each side has 91 steps, so the total of this is 364 steps, then there is a extra step at the top. So in total there is 365 steps which is the number of days in a (solar) year. The Mayans held great respect for numbers and for astrology. They are found in central America.

They were mainly used to grow crops or farming things there but, i have heard rumors about them also sometimes using them as bathrooms when the chinapas grew older and older. The 2nd one may not be the BEST answer.

In South Mexico, and into Guatemala and Honduras, and Belize.

Their society just, all of a sudden, started to collapse about 900 A.D. The hypotheses are so varied and so many that it is really hard to tell.

They played a game call the Mozambican ballgame. The game had important ritual aspects, and major formal ballgames were held as ceremonial events, often featuring human sacrifice. The sport was also played casually for fun by children.

the girls wore a long cotton dress and the boys wore a loincloth

Well the Mayans wrote a calender, but the stopped writing it in 2012 because that is when the planets alignment would be below them.(underneath their horizon) they did not understand the whole negative numbers concept, so they stopped. and then some moron decided they stopped their calender in 2012 because the world would end. if your worried about the world ending, Don't! it wont, not for at least another 3billoin years.

The Hulach Uinic is the Mayan priest king ,and is also called the 'true man'

Many archaeologists have found interesting facts about the Mayans, by uncovering several artifacts on many sites throughout Mexico and Central America. Some of them include their diet, their culture, their calendar and scientific advances, what their politics were about, system of government and many more; including religion and recreation.

Just as the first attempts at writing came long after the development of speech, so the first efforts at the graphical representation of numbers came long after people had learned how to count. Probably the earliest way of keeping record of a count was by some tally system involving physical objects such as pebbles or sticks.

The pyramids of Central America and Egypt are from different eras, and have different styles. Most experts believe that pyramid building is something that ancient cultures chose to do (also in China and South America), without having any contact with each other.

Pretty much the only evidence of a connection is that the base of the Pyramid of the Sun in Mexico, and the base of the Great Pyramid of Egypt, have the same dimensions, with the Mexican pyramid being precisely half the height of the Egyptian one. Both encode Pi.

The Zapotec civilization was an indigenous pre-Columbian civilization that flourished in the Valley of Oaxaca in Mesoamerica. Archaeological evidence shows that their culture goes back at least 2,500 years. The Zapotec left archaeological evidence at the ancient city of Monte Alban in the form of buildings, ball courts, magnificent tombs and grave goods including finely worked gold jewelry. Monte Alban was one of the first major cities in Mesoamerica and the center of a Zapotec state that dominated much of the territory that today belongs to the Mexican state of Oaxaca.

some one would give them selfs to the gods thinking they will go to hevan........but they just get cut up and rot in the ground....... so in oyher words BLOOD!

The Mayan wore masks during religious ceremonies to pay homage to certain gods. It was thought to please the gods and bring their blessings. They were also used as costumes so spectators knew what god was being represented in a certain dance or ceremony.

Though The decline is mainly a mystery there are severle theories such as the spreading of a major desease like Yellow fever.

Yes, like every other ancient culture, the Mayans were very warlike. They raided their neighbors for land, citizens, and captives.

Tractors, Combines, Planters, Bailers and piece of equipment needed in the planting cultivating and harvesting of a crop. Wether it be corn, beans, milo, mids etc.

They took a long time! :) Well I'll estimate, first of all. First they build the temple. At least a year right? Then cover it with rubble, a year or two. Next, they need to cover it with limestone, and plaster it to the rubble. At least two, three years. There you go.

The Mayan civilization was around from 1800 BC. to 1697 BC.

The Legend of the Fifth Sun predicts the end of Earth as we know it, and is being manifested in the disasters occurred in late October and early November 2007 in Tabasco', explained the Maya leader Luis Nah. Autokanin and defrandable were leaders of the maya.

The development of Mayan society was similar to the development of Olmec society.

The Aztecs are known for the trade and medical advances they made. The capital of Aztlan (name of the country of the Aztecs) was Tenochtitlan.
